24/15 is imho way better. You're too slow to afford failing at crush-through, long maul is a one trick pony.

PS. Wrong section. ;)

How about this? I never really messed with a long maul before so I dont know what to expect, although messing with it on a duel server with 0 wpf was fun

speed bonus is equal if not better than having the extra shitty 8% damage from power strike.

I like the 21/18 build for great mauls

Due to the lower base weight of the Long Maul I would not go below 24/15 but crush through weapons work great with high amount of strength so you could easily try a 27/12, 30/9 or even a 36/3 build. I had a lot of fun with a 30/9 build with a Mighty Mallet (also 40b damage).

poop listen.

go 18/24

dmg is useless if your gonna get swarmed  :wink:

you have a Mighty long maul might aswell get the most out of it by cutting down on str.

What else is the point in gaining that bit of weight and dmg if your just gonna go with a normal str build..

I agree with Tzar, I just retired from a very succesful 18/24 long maul build (it's on lvl 31).

6 PS,
8 ath
6 WM

18/24

6 PS

Best build IMO for the long maul.  :)

What I use on HeyZeus:
Str: 27
Agi: 15
Pole: 130wpf
PS: 9
Ath: 5
WM: 3

With +3 long maul I'd probably go  24 str with 6 ath
